v0.9.0

The ninth public release of NOVA.

NOVA v0.9 introduces NOVA's first module system, enabling programs to be organized across multiple source files through imports and exports. This release also introduces NOVA's first importable Standard Library module, math, establishing the foundation for reusable libraries distributed with the language.

Programs can now import user-defined modules, selectively import exported declarations, assign import aliases, organize projects using hierarchical module paths, and access Standard Library functionality through explicit imports. Module resolution, export visibility, and circular dependency detection are performed before program execution begins.

Highlights
